Flying South...

I will be off once again! This time closer to home...to Zamboanga for feasting and fiesta!

Zamboanga is in the southern region of the Philippines and is known as the City of Flowers. This is my first time to visit and I am so looking forward to it. As much as I love seeing other countries, I also love seeing more of my own. With more than 7000 islands, there sure is a lot to discover!

Another reason I am looking forward to this trip, and the reason I am actually going, is because Zamboanga is my boyfriend's hometown and I am going with his family for the fiesta there. This means fun times, GREAT seafood, and finally seeing where he was born :)

I spent a few days last December eating around Zamboanga and Jolo. It's a lot of fun going around the country and learning new traditions that are so similar yet truly unique. Zamboanga has some great merienda food, sweet native bananas and lots of deep fried goodies. What is the name of the famous resto with curacha and crab? A-something, sorry! Their sauce is great with crab or anything fried. Enjoy and looking forward to your pictures!

Hi Joey, everything all right with you ? I browse your blog almost every day, hoping to find some news. I hope life is good for you and it`s just a lack of time which keeps you away from blogging. A big kiss from angelika
